Friday's 25-to-35 knot southwest wind forced the postponement of Harbourgate's Captain Poo's King Mack Attack Tournament That tournament is now rescheduled for July 17-19. Speaking of Harbourgate Marina, they have issued a formal challenge to the kingfishermen of Martin Quay Marina. The issue of who has the best king mackerel fishermen will be settled on Sunday, July S. 1 understand that a u v 4/1 1 j win gu id liic iimiuia wiiux icaiii wins with the largest king. This trophy may end up being passed back and force each year. Kind of sounds like the America's Cup. We'll call this the King Cup! I like that idea. Maybe some of our marinas could do the same. A liule friendly competition never hurt anyone. What do you say? Sunday morning was really the only decent Fishing conditions .ve had all weekend. Several area boats made it offshore for some king fishing. Fenny McLaurin, fishing the boat the Penn Cat, landed five kings. Penny was working an area 10 miles out. 1 also heard reports of several kinds in the 30-pound class being landed. Full moon is July 4. If tradition holds true, there will be some big fish caught inshore. Let's watch and see if a 40-poundcr is caught right off the beach that week. Strong winds kep the "Mosquito Fleet" from making their planned trip to die Gulf Stream this week. Well, we'll try again. ???
